In fiction, photographic and video evidence of any kind is automatically accepted as genuine and unimpeachable. If someone has either one, and it shows you doing something bad, then you're screwed. The possibility that it could be digitally faked is never even considered unless the provenance of the evidence is central to the plot — and when it is proven, it is a great shock and surprise to all who were fooled by it. In reality, it's very difficult to fake these things digitally or otherwise. Not a year goes by without some fake UFO video appearing and subsequently being torn to pieces by over analyzers. Any competent effects artist or Photoshop user will tell the difference quite easily. This could potentially change in the future, however, as the technology becomes more sophisticated. Not surprisingly, this is starting to move into Discredited Trope territory as people in general become casually familiar with digital manipulation. Since the trope is so prevalent, only exceptions or particularly egregious examples are worth mentioning. |

In Wild Palms, photos and video are routinely faked; and when a character is asked by reporters, "Isn't it true that a picture is worth a thousand words?", with regards to a key piece of trial evidence, that character responds with a sneer: "You gotta be kidding me." | |

Averted in the Starcraft novelization Liberty's Crusade. Mike Liberty's anti-Terran Dominion documentary is shot in full holo instead of 2-D specifically because full holo is much harder to alter or fake. This serves the dual roles of convincing people of its authenticity and preventing the Dominion's propaganda apparatus from futzing with it. | |

In the original novel version of Stephen King's The Running Man, incriminating or just embarrassing photos of the protagonist and his wife, which he, and most likely any intelligent person, recognizes as airbrushed, are displayed during broadcasts of the eponymous Deadly Game to drum up public distaste for his character. | |

The Ninth Gate: The Ceniza brothers tell Dean Corso that forging an antique book is very difficult and has a low profit margin. This is expanded upon at length in the novel that the movie was loosely based on, The Club Dumas: when forging an antique book, you're not just forging an image or some text. You're producing a whole physical artifact which can - and will - be extensively scrutinized by experts to make sure it's real. You need the right kind of paper from the right time period and right manufacturer to pass chemical analysis. You need the right kind of ink as well. The right kind of binding materials, wood, leather, whatever; and the right binding techniques. And that's not even getting into making sure the fake actually looks the proper age. If there's a single flaw it will be found out sooner or later. The Ceniza brothers are experts who can do it, and will out of love for the craft of book-making and the challenge (plus the money, of course), but they cite the sheer difficulty when feigning innocence. | |

Double subverted on CSI: NY, in the episode that sent Stella to Greece. On discovering a plaster cast of a dagger supposedly buried with Alexander the Great, Mac initially assumes that it must have held a forgery. When carbon dating of a fragment of ivory from the dagger reveals that it's old enough to be the real thing, the trope is played straight and everyone acts as if it must be for real; the possibility that a forger might re-use ivory from some less-valuable or damaged antique from the same period never rates a mention. | |

Subverted in Great Teacher Onizuka. Onizuka initially gets in trouble when scandalous pictures of him are released at the school, but the other teachers eventually realized the pictures were digitally altered after analyzing them. Upon finding out about this, Onizuka decides to hire the student who made the pictures to make custom porn for him. The student is so bemused by this that not only does he decide to stop antagonizing Onizuka, he actually accepts his request. | |

Honor Harrington: Avoided at least four times: first when Honor is commanding her squadron of Q-ships, to make herself appear to be a merchant captain, second when the People's Republic of Haven creates execution footage more or less from whole cloth, third when the escapees on Cerberus alter their communication signals to make it seem as if all is still well on the prison planet to enemy warships and lastly when Haven fakes footage that Cordelia Ransom, their chief of propaganda is still alive when she has been dead for months (thanks to Honor's crew) before announcing her "official" death. At no time is this ever made out to be anything unusual within the universe. The Manticorans figure out the footage of Ransom is fake, not because they were trying to spot a forgery, but because they known the official story of her being killed in action is fake, since they never blew up her ship. The Cerberus escapees' fake version of the planet's warden is also revealed as a fake because a State Sec bigwig knows him personally and can tell its not his friend based on how and what he says in his message. The Manticorians also find digital clues that the video of Harrington's execution has been altered but can't figure out any reason for Haven to do that since they were quite open about planning to execute her, and Haven's actions afterward were entirely consistent with her being dead (as, in fact, they assumed was the case). In Torch of Freedom when Commodore Luff, the commander of the mercenary fleet hired by Manpower to destroy Torch, is warned off by Admiral Rozsak of the Solarian Navy, Luff considers the possibility that it isn't really Rozsak that he's talking to, but a digital recreation of him. Digital manipulation is used once again in An Act of War, a short from the fifth anthology, In Fire Forged. In a complicated series of double- and triple- crosses, the protagonist (aboard a former Manticorian warship captured by State Sec) has the transmissions modified so that the crew appear to be actual Manticorian officers rather than members of State Sec. It's also used to secretly signal that they're not who they're pretending to be, by inserting an image of Honor Harrington at one of the stations — the person viewing the transmission knows Honor personally, and knows that she couldn't possibly be aboard that ship. Ironically, he knows this because this occurs when she's believed dead due to the aforementioned fake video of her execution. |

A fantasy variant is found in Dominic Deegan, where an unscrupulous elemental mage captures innocuous phrases on the wind with his magic, then alters them to sound far worse than they actually were. He uses this to break up relationships of women he's interested in so that he can sleep with them on the rebound. His attempt to use it on Luna fails, however, because both she and Dominic are well aware of what he can do, and refuse to trust the veracity of his "evidence". One of his previous targets was Runcible Spoon's wife, and boy was he pissed when he found out. | |

If This Goes On—. La Résistance take over the transmission station where the Miracle of Incarnation is being broadcast, a ceremony in which God gives his yearly approval of the First Prophet Scudder as his agent on Earth, and replace it with one where God urges the populace to overthrow him. This causes enough chaos that the Resistance is able to take the entire country except the capital New Jerusalem. Eventually people realise what they saw was fake, and the protagonist says this should tell them the other Miracles of Incarnation they saw were also faked. His more cynical friend Zed tells him not to be naïve, as it's more comforting for people not to accept that everything they've been raised to believe is a lie. | |

They didn't even paste the good guys' likenesses over actors, and once the people look at the temple itself instead of the video they see it's perfectly fine. | |

Subverted in Front Mission 3, which takes place in 2112. The explosion that happened in Yokosuka base in the beginning of the game was released to the media as a gas explosion, complete with videos. The media suspects that it's forged. It is. There's also the hilarious scene where an old soldier you run into sends you a picture of himself kicking a Wanzer in half. Surprisingly, some of the boys don't recognize it for the obvious edit that it is. | |

Amazingly averted in Back to the Future. While trying to prove to Doc (in 1955) that he's from the future, Marty shows him a picture of his family, which shows his sister in a Class of '84 sweater. Doc dismisses it as a fake because Marty's older brother's hair is missing. Of course, that's just the first hint that something even worse is going on... | |

In The Outer Limits (1995) episode "Judgment Day", a murderer who has been sentenced to death is hunted down by the sister of the woman he was convicted of killing as part of a reality tv show. It turns out that the security footage used to convict him was altered by the show's producer, since the real killer was a juvenile and thus not eligible for the death penalty and the new show. In the end the bad guy gets exposed and forced to perform in the same role. | |

A period-appropriate version is present in The Shawshank Redemption. When assigned to cover the warden's bribes and other dirty money, Andy invents an imaginary scapegoat named "Randall Stevens" to take the blame if there are any discoveries. Andy was able to create Randall with nothing but some forged signatures and documents, and nobody at the bank questions why they never see their well-to-do client until after Andy plays the role and makes off with the warden's money. | |

Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves: When Bentley and Penelope exchange photos of themselves after meeting on Thief Net, the photos are blatantly edited, and not even by computer software, they just taped a photo of their head onto a picture of a model's body and scanned it into the computer. Penelope's real hand is even plainly visible in her own picture. Humorously, neither realize how obviously fake the other's picture is until they meet in person. | |

Mobile Suit Gundam 00: The A-LAWS edit footage of a relatively peaceful military coup to make it look like the coup leaders are slaughtering their hostages. In fact it was the A-LAWS combat automatons that were doing that, and the coup soldiers were shooting at them to protect the hostages. Celestial Being notes that only the VEDA supercomputer had the ability to so quickly and seamlessly edit the footage. | |

Armed Girl's Machiavellism: Satori slips roofies in Nomura's food to knock him out, then strips them both naked and takes a picture with her on top of him to make it look like they are having sex and frame him as a two-timer. She edited the photo to make it look like he is awake and added a lens flare to disguise the fact he doesn't have an erection. While Rin and Mary are fooled, Warabi takes one look at the photo and is immediately able to tell it was doctored. | |

Timmy Turner wishes to travel back in time to colonial Dimmsdale and uses a camera to take a snapshot of the town's namesake Dale Dimm in order to prove the latter's existence to A.J.. He makes no attempt whatsoever to edit the picture to look like a painting or at the least a very old photograph, and yet A.J. still accepts it while lampshading the fact that the "portrait" almost looks like a photograph. | |

In Starship Troopers 3: Marauder, after Sky Marshal Omar Anoke crash lands on a planet en route to Earth to give an uplifting speech after a major defeat, Admiral Enolo Phid uses a device that records her and transmits the image of Anoke in real time, saying and moving exactly as she is. She later said Anoke died in a religious terrorist bombing. | |

The The Transformers episode "Megatron's Master Plan" has Megatron frame the Autobots for crimes via faked video footage. In a bit of a subversion, he didn't fake the footage digitally; he actually disguised some of the Decepticons as Autobots and got a human stooge to videotape them in action. | |

In the original Command and Conquer, a journalist is covering an attack on civilians by The Good Guys — we then cut to a scene with that very same reporter in front of a green screen in a small studio. The Big Bad comes walking in, starts discussing how to spread the lie - then notices that the camera is still on and shoots it, ending the scene. Also of note is that the game takes place in 1995 or so, so it's not the future, and green screens are the best we've got. In addition, it's worth noting that when Nod is filming anti-GDI propaganda it often isn't faked; in one case they just paint one of their own Flame Tanks in GDI colours and film it burning down the nearest village. Also used in the sequel, Tiberian Sun, where you had to take over a GDI base and use their units to attack a local Mutant community. Ironically most of your vehicles appear painted in Nod Colors on-screen, but people still believe it's GDI. It's likely done because, in a world where you have space stations, it's fairly easy to Photoshop evidence, so they had to use actual witnesses. But actually averted with Kane's hello message to GDI, although you have to look into the manual to find out about it: GDI did consider the possibility that it was a fake, and had it thoroughly analyzed. The conclusion was that while there was some odd distortion, it was too little for it to be a fake (they theorize that it was the result of some form of amplifier, while later events implies that it was half of Kane's face being faked — specifically, the half that has a metal cover whenever Kane is shown 'in person' but is conspicuously missing when he's sending messages). |

Evil (2019): Part of a bit of Xanatos Speed Chess in "3 Stars". Kristen, acting as expert witness for a juvenile defendant, secretly records her prosecution counterpart admitting he wants the kid tried as an adult because he wants to see what evil the kid will commit after prison. Townsend jammed the incriminating part of recording somehow, so Ben makes a deep-fake of the recording which Kristen successfully passes off to the court as genuine. | |

In the Supergirl (2015) episode Luthors, everyone but Kara is convinced that Lena broke Metallo out of jail when a video of her doing so surfaces, and she is arrested. It turns out that the video is a fake, with the real culprit digitally edited out. It's especially egregious in Snapper Carr's case since this is the second time the supposed master journalist got tricked by faulty footage (the first being when he wrongly thought Guardian murdered someone because of a misplaced camera). | |

In Persona 5, Goro Akechi, the detective investigating the Phantom Thieves, shows the group photos of them exiting the Metaverse outside Okumura Foods' headquarters. This prompts an Oh, Crap! reaction from all of the Phantom Thieves, but Ryuji protests that the photos "gotta be 'shopped." Akechi adds that he has video footage, and says that the main point is that he knows the Phantom Thieves can go to the "other world" just like Akechi himself can. He uses the photos as blackmail material to get the Phantom Thieves to change Sae Niijima's heart, although he also mentions that if they don't act soon, the corrupt authorities will likely frame someone for the Phantom Thieves' crimes. | |

In Schlock Mercenary video feed manipulation is fairly widespread. One U.N.S. faction frames a major character who apparently sent nasty evidence against their guy through a wrong channel. We Will Use Correlation Analysis In The Future, so the tampered evidence blows up in their faces due to their technical ignorance, after the original was made public and attracted attention. Later Ennesby warns Tagon about sound editor possibilities... and that it's not needed to land Tagon as deep into it as his foot is in his mouth half of the time. Nevermind, since Hannibal did this with Schlock: |

Minority Report plays it straight at first when the protagonist finds a photo apparently of his abducted son and his kidnapper and does not stop to question its veracity, despite the fact that 100% accurate virtual reality was depicted as being available in shopping malls in only the previous scene; averted when it transpires the photo WAS faked and it was a setup to drive him to murder. Somewhat justified considering his obsession with his lost son, and the fact that his only relation to the man was that he knew he would kill him more than likely made him not question the authenticity of the photo. | |

Played with in Spider-Man 3 — Eddie Brock fakes a photo of Spider-Man robbing a bank, and fools the entire staff of the Daily Bugle. Peter exposes the photo as fake. Sharp-eyed viewers may note that the base photo Peter produces is one of his own photos from the Empire State University photography department. Brock not only faked the photo, but he stole it from his direct rival. J. Jonah Jameson is not happy about having to print a retraction. | |

In Fly Me to the Moon, Tsukasa's younger sister Chitose dislikes Tsukasa's new husband Nasa, so she tries to break them up by having one of her maids take pictures of Nasa with another maid in a compromising position, and editing the photos together to look like Nasa is cheating on Tsukasa. Nasa immediately notices something's wrong with the edited photo- it doesn't look anything like a composite of the other photos. As for Tsukasa, she doesn't believe the photo for a minute, and only pretends to be angry in order to fool Chitose long enough to get Nasa away. | |

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc: The protagonist notes that teenage fashion model Junko Enoshima looks different than she does on her cover photos, which she explains is because they are all Photoshopped. The real reason is that "Junko" is actually her fraternal twin sister Mukuro Ikusaba. Later in the game, the protagonist finds pictures of dead students together in the school without the iron plates on the windows, which he initially believes are faked even though Monokuma insists they aren't. They're real, taken during their time at Hope's Peak Academy that they forgot due to the mastermind giving them Laser-Guided Amnesia. |

In the episode "In the Pale Moonlight" of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Sisko and Garak hire a forger to create a fake recording showing the Dominion plotting against the Romulans. The Senator meant to be fooled immediately searches for and finds imperfections in the recording, revealing it to be a fraud- "It's a faaaake!". Double Subversion when it is revealed that Garak knew the forgery wouldn't be perfect and planted explosives in the Senator's ship. When the senator leaves to present the forgery to his government as an example of how the Federation cannot be trusted, the explosion kills him and damages the data rod enough to account for the already-present imperfections. When the Romulan scouts find it in the debris, it looks like the Dominion killed the ambassador because of the data rod, prompting the Romulan Empire to join the Dominion War on the Federation's side. In another episode of Deep Space Nine some seemingly-friendly aliens claim that Chief O'Brien was killed in a nuclear accident (but they really have him imprisoned). O'Brien's wife insists on seeing the footage of his death and immediately identifies it as faked, because it shows O'Brien ordering a coffee from the replicator and he "never" drinks coffee in the afternoon. After an episode full of plot where the Niners rescue O'Brien, she discovers that he drinks coffee in the afternoon all the time. |

To kick off the events of Pokémon: Zoroark: Master of Illusions, Corrupt Corporate Executive Kodai orders Zoroark to pose as the three legendary beasts of Johto and go on a destructive rampage. He then edits the footage to show certain landmarks being destroyed. An odd move, since the unedited footage alone should have been enough to support his claims, and all the editing does is allow the heroes to discover the unharmed landmarks and figure out that he's deceiving everyone. | |

X-Wing Series During The Infiltration in Wraith Squadron, one of the Wraiths' most potent weapons is a "holographic overlay" computer program that can be applied to their master actor Face, converting his appearance and voice into an enemy officer's in ship-to-ship communications. It's noted that this was compiled by using the duty logs of the officer in question, which he kept in full holo due to rampant, unchecked ego. In addition, while their ship's computer is fast enough to run the overlay in real time, it takes a lot of resources — when forced by circumstance to field calls from his immediate "superior" and the Big Bad at once, Face worries that the computer will be overtaxed and cause the overlay to break down, with... problematic results. It doesn't, thankfully, partially because he goes out of his way to even out its workload. When Gara Petothel becomes Lara Notsil, she carefully edits all remaining records of the dead woman - there aren't many - to show Gara's fingerprints and genetic structure, Gara's image. When the Big Bad contacts her through Lara's brother, there are family holos in the background, and the Lara in them looks like Gara. |

A critical scene early in Mass Effect hinges on the use of an audio file recovered from a geth soldier that implicates Saren in the attack on Eden Prime. Nobody questions its authenticity, at least on-screen, which is especially odd considering that the evidence was provided by a quarian, whose race is generally not trusted by the rest of the galaxy. Though, as you arrive in the middle of the evidence being presented, it is plausible any authentication process would have been completed already. On the other hand, its veracity has several good things backing it up. Firstly, Councillor Tevos is only person to recognise that the other voice on the recording belonged to Matriarch Benezia, someone very few humans are familiar with. Secondly, the Geth unit with the information was not found on Eden Prime, which implicates Saren having contact with other Geth. Finally, the Quarian in question, Tali, had been on the Citadel for several days at that point, attempted to speak to the Council with information regarding Saren and been turned away by C-Sec, which took place before she had ever met Shepard. |

In District 9, the Mega-Corp starts a manhunt for the protagonist by releasing a pixellated image of him supposedly having sex with an alien. They didn't even really bother with Photoshop, since the exact same scene (sans pixelation) appears in Wikus's own documentary film at the beginning, being obviously of the alien attacking him. It's blatant enough to be seen as Black Comedy. | |

"Solaere ssiun Hnaifv'daenn": Soon after the ch'M'R Aen'rhien arrives in orbit of Glintara with medical supplies, a near-riot breaks out. Apparently a video popped up on Glintara's local Alternet purporting to show the Aen'rhien as a Tal'Shiar vessel attacking a refugee convoy. The police chief calls it an obvious fake, but Tovan informs him that it's genuine, albeit taken out of context: The Aen'rhien previously was a Tal'Shiar ship and did hit the convoy, but under a different captain, crew, and government two years previously (the next captain defected to the Romulan Republic). | |

Averted in 2nd SRW OG where Shu Shirakawa (with the help of Sapphine Grace), doctors a video about Arteil Steinbeck and Teniquette Zezernan collaborating in secret. However, while The Federation does note that the video alone is insufficient evidence and cannot be used to implicate that Arteil is in cahoots with The Guests, it did create a division within the Gaia Sabers. This video also created a lot of breathing room for the Steel Dragons, which is Shu's real objective. | |

Quite possibly one of the earliest examples of this is in Wargames when JOSHUA messes with the U.S. nuclear command network so much that the only way that they can confirm that the U.S. has not been hit by a Russian first strike is by calling one of the "nuked" command posts by telephone and verifying that they are not dead. | |

The prelude to Marvel's "Secret War" featured S.H.I.E.L.D. agents interrogating Killer Shrike about a robbery they have him on tape committing. This is accepted as infallible evidence despite the fact that the Marvel Universe is filled to the brim with shapeshifters, mind-altering psychics, and technological masterminds; if the Fixer can edit Godzilla into Bogart's role in Casablanca, he can frame Killer Shrike with his eyes closed. | |

Gundam: In Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, when Durandal uses footage of the Battle of Berlin in his reveal of Logos, the Archangel and Freedom Gundam's presence has been excised — which the Archangel crew and Freedom's pilot note to themselves. The spinoff manga, SEED Destiny Astray, depicts a couple of mobile suits which achieve Stealth in Space using a highly unorthodox method: they have the ability to hack into the enemy's camera systems and digitally erase themselves from the real-time footage. Mobile Suit Gundam 00: The A-LAWS edit footage of a relatively peaceful military coup to make it look like the coup leaders are slaughtering their hostages. In fact it was the A-LAWS combat automatons that were doing that, and the coup soldiers were shooting at them to protect the hostages. Celestial Being notes that only the VEDA supercomputer had the ability to so quickly and seamlessly edit the footage. |

Hilariously subverted in an episode of Being Human, when a vampire records Tom and George transforming into werewolves and uploads it to YouTube, hoping to cause chaos in the human world by revealing the existence of werewolves. It utterly fails, as everyone who sees the video just assumes it's done via special effects (with one commenter even criticizing the production quality). | |

Inverted in an episode of American Dragon: Jake Long; Jake learns that his teacher, Mr. Rotwood, is providing a cash reward to anyone who can photograph a dragon. Jake, naturally, takes photos of himself in dragon form to give to Rotwood. Rotwood declares that his photos are fake because they're so authentic looking. His logic actually isn't all that bad, as he points out that it would be impossible for someone (let alone a teenage boy) to get so close to a real life dragon without being horribly lacerated at best. | |

The Durandal battles and defeats a U-TIC cruiser, only for U-TIC to alter footage from the battle to make it look like the Durandal had attacked the Woglinde, which has been destroyed by the Gnosis at the beginning of the game. Shion, who had survived the attack on the Woglinde, then has to retrieve an unalterable record of the attack from KOS-MOS' memory to clear the Kumasi Foundation's name. | |

Star Trek: The Original Series: The episode "Court Martial" was ahead of its time in this matter, sort of. Kirk was facing court martial for the death of a crewman when video footage from the bridge shows him pushing the wrong button on his captain's chair. Spock discovered that the computer had been, in fact, tampered with, and the not-so-dead crewman had altered the footage. It's never explained why no one else (including Kirk's attorney) bothers to mention the possibility before the story's climax, however. "The Menagerie, Part 1" had Spock using a computer to convincingly create commands in Kirk's voice. Other episodes feature villains impersonating Kirk's voice over the comm (in "A Taste of Armageddon" and "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" where it is done via computer or robot, and in "Whom Gods Destroy" where it's the voice of a shapeshifter) and in two out of those three, Scotty is savvy enough to see through the ruse. |

There is — well, was — a DeviantArt comic that put a lampshade on this trope; the main character, Doodle/Zachary, was sent to the principal office. Said principal accused him of murdering another student and shoves a picture of Doodle killing her. Doodle's response? What makes it hilarious is the fact that the picture showed a poorly drawn smiley-face on it. |

Asuka asks if it's possible that the photos were faked, but Umeko insists that Asuka should be able to tell which photos are edited, since she works in the entertainment industry. In the end, it's revealed that all the photos are genuine, and prove that every member of the cast (not just Samuru, the Ultimate Executioner, and Reyes, who's Sparkling Justice 2.0) committed at least one murder in the past. | |

In Super Robot Wars Z, the protagonists, while split up, are shown footage of the other side engaging in morally reprehensible acts, which causes them to come to blows when they meet back up. The matter is resolved, but not before it's used to justify the Freedom vs Impulse battle from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. Averted in 2nd SRW OG where Shu Shirakawa (with the help of Sapphine Grace), doctors a video about Arteil Steinbeck and Teniquette Zezernan collaborating in secret. However, while The Federation does note that the video alone is insufficient evidence and cannot be used to implicate that Arteil is in cahoots with The Guests, it did create a division within the Gaia Sabers. This video also created a lot of breathing room for the Steel Dragons, which is Shu's real objective. |

Leverage This was justified in that Hardison is a master computer hacker as well as they generally give other evidence to back up their altered version of events. One notable early example is The Bank Job in which Hardison fakes the security footage to make it look as if their mark, the corrupt local Judge, robbed the bank instead of the desperate father and son that had actually robbed it. The reason this works is that the local cops already new the target of the frame was corrupt and believed it without much evidence. There was also the fact that the rest of the team posed as witnesses that gave the altered version of events and their mark also shot Nate. This was also used again in the episode "The Fifteen Minutes Job" in which their mark had previously altered old fashioned photos. Hardison was more impressed with this than his own digital work. This also prompted a debate between Parker and Hardison over CGI Yoda vs the original puppet. |

In the My-HiME and Hell Girl crossover The Grinning Snake, Konoka manages to find a surveillance recording of Shizuru's attack on the First District headquarters, during which Konoka's father was killed. She shows it to the police, but they're convinced it isn't real after seeing Shizuru's Child, a combination between a squid and a multi-headed snake. Konoka is thus left with no other choice than to confront Shizuru and demand that she turn herself in, or use Ai's contract to send Shizuru to hell. | |

She still has a photograph of her with Danny and Tucker, identical to a photo of Danny's in every way except that she's now in it, and tries to use this to prove that her crazy story about them being best friends and him having super powers is true. | |

Shadowbeat, an early supplement for Shadowrun, provided game rules for playing non-criminals such as rockers, reporters, and professional athletes. The section on reporters not only provided rules for faking still or video evidence in support of your stories, but also the odds of such bogus pics being identified as fake when they're submitted to the newsnets. | |

In the "Half a Life" arc of Gotham Central, Two-Face outs Renee Montoya by sending pictures of her and her girlfriend to her parents and the GCPD. Her brother, who already knew, convinces their parents that the pictures were faked using computers. They accept his story, although it is clear that they believe him because they so desperately want to believe him. | |

Pretty much any time that a character in Kaijudo sees or gets unambiguous evidence of a creature, they are immediately given a Mind Wipe or take down the photos with a disclaimer that they were hoaxed. Keep in mind that the vast majority of those who see the creatures are very young teenagers. Yet, every single time it's treated as a life-or-death situation, as if people will 100% believe some random kid on the internet claiming to see monsters. | |

Avoided, of all places, in At the Mountains of Madness (written in 1931 by H. P. Lovecraft) where one of the protagonist's worries is that the photographic evidence of what he chronicles may be dismissed as clever fakes by the scientific community. Similar fears are present in all Lovecraft's stories, which include a protagonist desperate to prove the existence of some kind of Eldritch Abomination to the general public. In "The Whisperer in Darkness", the aliens themselves seem to agree that everything the protagonist has gathered could be dismissed as cheap forgery. | |

In Battlestar Galactica (2003), a woman accuses Baltar of collaborating with the Cylons and planting a bomb prior to the Cylon attack of Caprica. Baltar gets thrown in the brig based on the security camera footage she provides. He is then released when Lt. Gaeta examines the image and finds it has been altered. This particular incident had even deeper layers, as the forged evidence was deliberately made to look realistic on first glance, but be recognized as a forgery upon more detailed examination. The Plan was to convince people that Baltar (someone who actually HAD collaborated with the Cylons, albeit unknowingly - a traitor who didn't know who he was really working for) couldn't possibly be a collaborator, because why would the Cylons attempt to frame one of their own? | |

In the Uplift series by David Brin, their talent for special effects is one of the few advantages humans have over the eons-old Galactic cultures, who are apparently too stodgy and unimaginative to expect this sort of deception. Except, of course, for Culla in Sundiver — who does exactly this at the request of some murky powers in the elder Galactic cultures. | |

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: The Tachikomas mention that nothing can be taken for face value, since it's so easy to falsify any form of data — even memories. In one case, they do have legitimate photo evidence of a crime, but decide releasing it would accomplish nothing. Hackers such as the Laughing Man can even make themselves invisible by hacking into people's cyberbrains and editing himself out of their sight. So you can't even trust your own eyes! In one case, a couple of homeless men who have no implants are the only reliable witnesses because they are the only people who could see his real face. Even the cyberbrain-equipped police officers were hacked, and left unable to understand the descriptions that the men gave. Any attempt to sketch the Laughing Man resulted in a picture of his logo. |

In season two of Once Upon a Time, Cora frames Regina for Archie's murder by glamoring herself to look like Regina and using further illusion to make it appear as though she is killing Archie in front of Pongo. Later, Gold magically extracts the dog's memory, and it's treated like CCTV footage, convincing just about everyone except Emma that Regina is guilty, despite the fact that they should all know illusion magic exists. The only reason Emma isn't convinced is that she finds the Orgy of Evidence of suspicious, as her experience tells her evidence in such cases is usually a lot harder to come by. | |

One of the puzzles you could come across in the FMV game Ripper involves an image supposedly taken from the protagonist's girlfriend's mind, IDing the titular killer. Your task: put it through an image analyzer and prove that it was faked. There's also a puzzle where you had to break into a secret lab locked by a voice recognition system. Your task is to track down the owner of the lab, record a snippet of her voice, then alter it to say what you need it to say to unlock the lab. | |

In the Ace Attorney series, quite a lot of evidence comes from photographs and video recordings which were conveniently taken by passersby/witnesses/the police/whoever. Even if the person who provided the evidence has reason to be against the defendant though, the authenticity of such evidence is never called into question. Even when Franziska provides a photograph that supposedly shows Maya Fey shapeshifting into her dead sister (which is real, but no one seems to notice), everyone takes it completely seriously and as a plausible explanation for Maya's murder charge - that she committed the crime while possessed by a vengeful ghost. This becomes even more ridiculous in Apollo Justice and Dual Destinies, when one of the things contributing to the Dark Age of the Law is evidence forgery and yet no one considers tampering with photos or videos to be a possibility. The possibility of altering a timestamp on a security photo is brought up in one case, but is quickly ruled out. | |

Unsurprisingly, nobody makes any comments on this. Although it probably doesn't help Negi's case that there's a Government Conspiracy opposing him. Chisame comments that her own website's photos are 'shopped. |

Babylon 5: The episode "The Illusion of Truth" is based around an Earth Alliance propaganda operative acquiring interviews and other video footage to create a fake news story. There was no need to fake actual footage, but a lot of responses were moved around and taken out of context to sound incriminating. In another episode, the video communication of Clark proving his implication in Santiago's death is mentioned to have a digital authentication signature. Despite this, the corrupt government averts this trope by immediately decrying the video as a forgery. In the arc concerning Sheridan's capture and imprisonment, the EA interrogator notes that they want him to make a public confession, where a telepath can read him to ensure the veracity of the confession. He says that if Sheridan doesn't go through with it, they'll simply forge his signature and fake a recording, but know that some people will never believe it. The season four finale, set in the future, had a scene where someone was using holographic recreations to produce fake and/or "politically convenient" versions of past events. Unfortunately for the propagandist, the artificial Garibaldi had the original's ethics as well as talents for security hacking and sent out footage of the Engineered Public Confession, sparking a nuclear exchange. |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: One episode featured a plot which involved forcing a kidnapped Ambassador Spock to send a message. When Spock was rescued, they attempted to broadcast a fake holographic message instead. There are a few instances where Data's photographic memory and ability to perfectly mimic voices punch massive holes in the Enterprise's security system, such as in Brothers when he commandeered Enterprise to respond to a subspace signal sent by his father. The horrendous security breach (something his Evil Twin Lore and similar technology could also do, presumably) was not seen to be fixed, or ever brought up again. |
